A fried egg is a simple, nutritious dish made by cooking an egg in a small amount of oil or butter until the whites are set and the yolk is cooked to your preference. Originating from a wide range of cuisines worldwide, it is a versatile and popular breakfast item. Fried eggs are an excellent source of high-quality protein, essential vitamins like B12, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus. The yolk also contains healthy fats and choline, which supports brain health. However, frying eggs with excessive oil or butter can increase their calorie and saturated fat content. Choosing a non-stick pan or using minimal oil can make this preparation healthier. Whether served on toast or alongside other dishes, a fried egg adds both flavor and nutrients, making it a staple for many meals globally.
